If you grew up in the 90s or just had awesome parents that kept the show Arthur alive after its time, then you'll be able to relate one hundred percent to our beloved, sassy D.W. Here are a few times we know D.W. Read would get it spot on if she were in college today.

1. When you see the politics blowing up, not only your tv channels, but your Facebook News Feeds as well.

Is there an election coming up? I truly had no idea...

2. When you have to check your bank account after a night out celebrating your bestie's 21st birthday.

So it was Katie's birthday booze bash last night, and of course the wonderful friend you are, HAD to buy a round of shots for everyone, right? Regardless of the consequences the next morning, everyone seemed to think you were the life of the party!

3. How you feel after a long week of finals.

After cursing every professor, intelligent kid in your class, and even your study guides, you've finally decided to give up and take a break from everything and everyone.

4. When the professor wastes time in class to talk about wasting time in class.

We've all had at least one professor who doesn't allow you to leave the class early, even though all your work is done, because they want you to find something to do so you aren't "wasting your time." Although, this always leads to a lecture on how we should always be studying something or working on something.. Resulting in wasting time in class.

5. How you feel every time you realize walking out of class that you forgot your umbrella at home.

Most of us, college kids, forget to watch/look at the weather before school and end up in a hoodie on a hot day or better yet, no umbrella in a monsoon.

6. When you realize you probably won't find a job after college with your major.

With today's economy, you'd be lucky enough to find a job anywhere.. you can't believe you've risked all-nighters over information you may never put to use.

7. When trying to convince your professor you deserve a curve in your grade at the end of the year.

Don't you hate it when your professor won't bump your 65 to a 95? You even read the syllabus to find out his office hours. What a jerk!

8. When you realize your life felt much more in control before you went to college.

They say the best years of your life happen in college, yet your uncontrollable crying, overwhelmingly empty bank account and countless missed hours of sleep say otherwise.

Even though D.W. can be a tad dramatic sometimes, you could not agree more that she would be a great spokesman for us in college.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
